So begins the great smart bulb saga!
  • Sonic Bomb alarm clock from amazon. $42. Put the vibrate part between mattress and boxspring. Sound can be disabled or turned to max. Good luck sleeping through that

    Yo, what was your first computer? How old were you, where and how did you get it, what did you do with it, etc.
  • Zenith HealthKit z-89 , Dad built it, I played it. He bought me a “intro to basic” book and I never stopped making games for my brother to lose. He figured it out I mapped all choices to eventually lose. those were fun times

    What other things do you usually do while knitting?
  • Knit while walking (slower than a power walk) on treadmill = getting my steps in for the day

    This only works for sock knitting for me or doing sleeves where most of the work is on a platform in front of me.

    For Lace/chart knitting I count out-loud to keep husband from interrupting mid-repeat. I have him trained to wait and I will stop at the end of the repeat

    Youtube videos. See how many repeats you can get in during ads. Like to support my subs with the ads. Volume is muted and I have closed captions on. So if I am not looking, they are getting the ad revenue without me actually “watching” them.

    Is an expensive mattress worth the money?
  • Sleep number 100 here. Belly sleeper I prefer “very firm”. Husband is sleep number 32 , back & side sleeper and wants all the fluff, this is why we have sleep number that was purchased 10 years ago and still works.

    Edit: the sleep number mattress we bought was third cheapest. Just enough to get the app access to the firmness adjuster.
